REST uses different representation to define the resources like text, JSON and XML. The most popular representation of resources is JSON and XML.
In REST (Representational State Transfer) architecture, resources are typically represented using Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs). URIs are used to uniquely identify and locate resources on the web. Resources can be represented by URIs in the form of URLs (Uniform Resource Locators).
Therefore, the correct answer to the question “What is the way to represent the resource in REST?” would be: “Resources are represented using URIs, typically in the form of URLs.”
